Select the most suitable wave theory (Airy, Stokes or cnoidal) from the dimensionless wave height, water depth and wave length (combined ISO method and Fenton method).
Use the Result Plot option to plot either dimensionless wave height versus water depth (ISO method), or dimensionless wave height versus wave length (Fenton method). The observed breaking wave height is lower than theoretical wave height.
